We are not a high-income family. Like many Filipinos, we struggle to make ends meet and pray daily for God's provision. Though we are not blessed with a combined salary of at least P40,000 or more, we are still blessed. And yes, we ARE blessed more than millions of Filipinos (and people!) all over the world. We are blessed in so many ways, though maybe not materially. (Though I still consider us to be materially blessed!)
When it comes to our homeschool, I do wish that we had more sometimes. However, I know that it is not the curriculum or the books that matter the most, but our faith and our character. I do know, too, that
when God calls you to homeschool, He will provide for it.
This has been proven in our own lives — fellow homeschoolers and even non-homeschoolers have so generously shared their resources with our family and have pointed us in the right direction whenever we look for affordable or free materials. I cannot even begin to thank the Lord for them, these people, some of whom hardly even knew us before, who sent us books and other things for our homeschool. Indeed, God is amazing!
And how true are these words:
May you and I always rest in the knowledge that God loves us and our spouses and our children very much and that He will always, always provide for us! ;)
P.S. If you need more encouragement on how God provides, read this article on Daily Focus
here. :) It's very inspiring! :) (Just to clarify though, we're not AOP homeschoolers, tee hee!)
